ed suicide Monday, was more rational yes

by DR.. Robt. Reed and DIR. Alderman,
probed for the ball. IL WAS found that
what was supposed to have been the bullet

Kalamazoo Again Downs Sandusky-A Great Game
aiCOlunbus- Mansfield Gets Away
With Akron.

The Wheeling boys are keeping up their
victorious lead in great shape. Yesterday
they downed the Steubenville club unmer-
cifully, piling up D great big runs, while
almost shutting out the other side. NAL
lory and Elliff did great work, the former
pitching breaking the home club up very
badly. Steubenyille will put in its new
battery to-day, and are looking for better
luck. The GreenstOckings want to play
carefully, and keep in the front row.
There was n great game at Columbus,
between the home club and the Zanes-
yilles. At the end Of the tenth inning the
score was a tie, and darkness prevented
further play.
Kalamazoo again beat Sandusky, but it
was far from being a walk-Over. The
Sandusky men are showing very good
quality of pluck.
Mansfield beat Akron rather badly.
The attendance was fairly good all
around, and the weather was superb.

STEUBENvILLE, OHIO, May 3.-AbOut
500 people, among whom were many ladies,
assembled at the ball grounds this after
noon to witness the second game between
the home nine and the Wheeling club.
The game was a disappointment to the
spectators from the fact that there was no
contest to make it interesting, the Wheel
ing club having it all their
own way from the start. Carroll
and Tanning constituted the battery for
the Steubenvilles, and probably
because Carroll was unable TO pitch full
strength from having exhausted himself in
yesterday game, Wheeling batted hun all
over the field, scoring % runs against Tor
the home team. Mallory and Ellitf were
the Wheeling battery and both filled their
positions in an excellent manner, MallOry's
pitching being too much for the Steuben-
vile, who failed to hit him to any extent.
Steubenville expects its new battery and
will doubtless have it in tO-dsy's contest,
when better game may be looked for.
Following is the score in detail:

The Detroits defeated the Pittsburgs
yesterday by heavy batting at OppOrtune
times, daring base running and sharp
fielding. Morris pitched his first cham
pionship game of the season. His work
was not encouraging and indicated that he
has lost much OF his effectiveness under
the new rules. He was hit hard through
out the game. Getzein pitched agoOd game
until the last couple of innings, when he
eased up a little, and the home club
earned four of their five runs. The play
ing of Kuehne for the home nine in center
field, in place of Brown, caused weakness
at that point. He made two bad errors at
critical times. The catching of BriOdy,
the fielding of Dunlap and long running
catch of Manning, were the features of the
game. The attendance was about 1000.

race, is indicative of bile in the blood.
Who would be yellow when he or she can
exhibit the hue of health on cheek and
brow through the aid OF Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, an antagonist at whose
onset liver complaint takes refuge in flight.
Fur upon the tongue, nausea, sick head
ache, pains under the right ribs and
shoulder blade, an unpleasantly odorous
breath, are remediable with this benign
Alternative, which does not, like a potent
cathartic. drench the intestines, or, like
the mercurial preparations, contaminate
the blood. Not only the liver, but the
stomach and bowels are aroused, toned
and regulated by this fine family medi-
cine, which has won the confidence of
the respectable classes, not by startling
assertions on its behalf. but by the con-
sistency of the claims made for it with its
performance in every instance when
tested.

ola Fashioned Tooth Pulling.

l remember having a tooth pulled once
by h old doctor. His wife seated her
self in a chair, and placed me on the
door with my head clasped between her
knees. Then the doctor brought out his
turnkey-which was constructed some
what like one of the levers with a nova
BILE hook used for the rolling of logs-and
fished from his pocket an old bandana
handkerchief, which had done service
for mouth, nose, and p~erspiration for a
month or two, and wadded it about the
handle of the machine. This bundle he
pushed in my mouth, after having lanced
the gums, and commenced working to
get the end Of the hook under the edge of
the tooth. Having accomplished this, he
began to grind on the handle, and at the
same moment the old lady frightened mel
grasp on my head. The top of my head
seemed being pried off, and all the mar
row in my bones seemed to be pulled up
in strings toward my neck. Crack the
instrument slipped off. Again it was
fixed, and again the top of my head was
turned upward with a violent crash, and
again the reluctant marrow was drawn
out in strings. Three times did the ma
chine slip; the fourth trial was made,
the top of my head was wrenched en-
tirely off, and the marrow in my system,
my boots, bones, and all, appeared to be
drawn up with a terrific pull, and the
molar was extracted. p
l pocketed the tooth, he pocketed a
shilling, and then 1 left.
1t was not an uncommon occurrence in
those days for the doctor, when trying to
locate his hook beyond the space filled by
The handkerchief, to hitch on the wrong
tooth, and to jerk out a sound grinder in
place of the real offender. In such q
case the sufferer took it all good ma
turedly, and underwent with such endur-
ance as he could the correction of the
blunder. -"Poiiuto'' in Chicago Times.

ing up in my rear, and yet I raw him as
plainly as before. He came on slowly
calltiously-always a little nearer. When
within three feet of NV heels the pistol
was raised to the back of my head, and [
said to myself:
sc l am to be shot. 1t is a large bull
let. and it will go clear through my head.
l wonder why he didn't bite me? If |
was loose ! wodld make a fierce fight for
my life.
'Clugl' 1t was the sound Of a pistol
hammer striking on the center of a cart
ridge-a cartridge which had failed to
explode. In the same second l was on
my feet. A human figure stood before
me. / gave my heavy rifle a half sweep
and the figure sank down with a stifel
shrek. Then l was fully awake, and |
e n over the stranger, to find it was the
woman who should have been asleep in
the wagon. She was unconscious, but
clutched firmly in her right hand was a
bull dog pistol. l wrenched it away and
carried her to the embers of the fire, and
when ] had secured q blaze l saw that |
had struck her on the head and given her
a bad hurt. l examined the pistol, and
when | found hat the cartridge had been
tried by the hammer, it did not take me
long to unravel the plot against my life.
l bound the woman hand and foot, and
then kept vigilant watch until daybreak.
She recovered consciousness long enough
before this, but the only aid l extended
was to loosen her hands and place a dish
of water beside her. She did not address
me, and l had 10 word for her.
When day broke there was another
surprise for me. A Kickapoo Indian lay
dead under the wagon, shot through the
heart. 1t was a great mystery to me, but
the woman was ready to clear it up. L
united her, washed the blood off her face
and head, and then she gave the whole
plot away. Patton had beer made a
prisoner by a gang of outlaws in order
that might be robbed. These men knew
of the tin box in the wagon. The woman
had been sent into camp with the story
she told, knowing that she would get
into the wagon. The two men came to
distract my attention, and the Kickapoo
crept up to receive the box. The woman
couldn't find it, and 1 mistook the Indian
for a wolf and killed him. Then the
woman concluded that 1 had the money
on me, and while 1 mapped she crept up
to shoot me n secure it. She told the
particulars as coOlly as 1 relate them to
you, and when she had finished she asked
what l was going to do about it. Patton
had by that time returned, having raised
SUCH a row that his captors feared to de
tain him longer, and he answered the
question by picking up a rope and starting
for the nearest tree.
This broke the woman down, and she
begged and pleaded so abjectly that we
left her free to go where she would when
we drove on. To nave taken her to
Ockmulgee, Kickapoo or any other town
as a prisoner would have been to cause us
great delay and annoyance, and it was
some consolation to know that the blow
l gave her caused a wound from which
she would not for many days.
h was penitent enough as we drove
away, but six weeks later was killed
with her husband, a half breed, while
stealing stock from the Creek Indians
New York Sun.
